On July 14 in Luoyang, Henan Province, a supermarket shelf suddenly collapsed, hitting a young boy and a woman.

The boy was largely unharmed as he wasn’t directly struck, but the woman, who was hit head-on, suffered multiple injuries, including three loosened front teeth and bruises to her fingers and knees.

Ms. Guo, the woman involved, stated that the shelf was only secured with four small screws, which were not sturdy enough, leading to the accident.

She was hospitalised for four to five days and said she still feels physically unwell with any movement after being discharged. The supermarket has agreed to a one-time compensation of 10,000 yuan to cover medical expenses, lost wages, and emotional damages.

7月14日，河南洛阳。一家超市内的货架突然倒塌，砸中了一名小男孩和一名女子。

小男孩因为没有直接受到冲击，幸无大碍，而被直接砸中的女子则导致3颗门牙松动，手指膝盖等多处受伤。

当事人郭女士介绍，货架只有4个小螺丝固定，固定不结实才导致事故的发生。自己住院治疗了四五天，出院后也感觉身体一活动就吃不消。超市方愿一次性赔偿医药费、误工费、精神抚慰金等共计10000元。
